I try to remind myself we are all products of our socialization, and women are immersed in patriarchy as much as anyone else in our society
Some folks reject and then have to unlearn as much of it as possible, some people internalize it and even build identity around it as a way of surviving in a society that sees them as lesser :(
(And of course some people get significantly more or less patriarchal socialization in their early life, folks dont all start from the same place)
